He sets an excellent example for each of us at Potra Law Firm, and his attitude of passionate advocacy encourages and stretches us to be the best that we can be for our clients. Attorney Potra deeply cares about every person who walks into our office, whether that person comes in for a one time consultation or retains us to represent him through a longer process. He understands the hard situations that each client is going through, and he takes extra time to answer a client’s questions, analyze his case, and explain the legal process even in the case of clients for whom no relief is yet available. I have the deepest respect for Attorney Potra, and I could not ask for a better place to work than Potra Law Firm."
"I am one of the immigration attorneys at this firm. I have been working here since August 2012, and I love it. Attorney Potra truly cares about his clients, and it shows. In this office, we understand that most of our clients are going through some of the worst and scariest periods of their lives, and we do our best to communicate with them with understanding and compassion. We are not perfect, but we do our best. I am honored to work for someone who I respect and who I know cares about the outcomes of his cases. Immigration law is a difficult area of law, and there is not always relief available for those without status in the United States. Here, we care about being honest with those in our office. If we cannot do something to help in a case, we will not take any money from that person. I believe in Attorney Potra as an attorney and also as a person. He really does care about every person that walks through our doors."
